There have been already rumours in 2022 that manufacturing of the EQC in Bremen would finish in 2023 – on the time, Mercedes didn’t need to touch upon “speculations about future mannequin collection and their planning.” However that was exactly what occurred. “Manufacturing of the EQC ended as deliberate within the second quarter of 2023,” the Mercedes spokesperson advised electrive.
The fashions that might nonetheless be ordered after manufacturing had ended inventory automobiles. In accordance with the weblog MB Ardour, there was nonetheless a 24 per cent low cost on accessible inventory automobiles firstly of the 12 months. These are actually most likely all bought out, making the EQC historical past.
